What Happened to uShoot Studios After Dragons’ Den?

uShoot Studios appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2016, Series 13 Episode 13. The business was a remotely controlled high-quality product photography machines. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2025.

The Pitch

Daniel Luxon walked into the Den in 2016 with a remotely controlled high-quality product photography machines. They were asking for £50,000 in exchange for 20% of the business.

Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.

The Deal

No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Daniel Luxon left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

uShoot Studios did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2025, some 9 years after the pitch.

This is not an unusual outcome. The majority of businesses that appear on Dragons’ Den, deal or no deal, don’t make it in the long run. The show can provide a platform and capital, but it can’t substitute for a sustainable business model.

Is uShoot Studios Still in Business?

No. uShoot Studios is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
